My Besties:The Come Up written by Asia Hill

Image result for My Besties: The come up


Four girls with tragic backgrounds named Ja’ziya, Tiki, ReRe, and Dirty E decide that they have to level up and get money. They began robbing local drug dealers that soon leads to bank robbery, and occasionally murder. These young, smart but misguided young lady’s take the dangerous route to success. Even in the end when their life is on the line, there isn’t much regret, just reminiscing and acceptance. I admit that all four girls still keep their head in the books and look out for each other no matter what circumstances or events occurred. The story line was very nice and well thought out.  However, I would’ve liked for the book to be a bit more detailed. Also, there were quite a few grammatical errors that were missed by the editor. Overall I still enjoyed the read, the ending was an attention grabber for sure!

The Apology Written by Eve Ensler

Through this letter of unveiling; a young girl exposed to an empire of despair gains a  modicum  of ablution Created in the voice of her long dead father she articulates the momentous confession he should have  conveyed; not necessarily for retribution The victim is consumed by self-loathing, mental turbulence, and grief While the witness battles against overwhelming doubt and disbelief That the abuser dares to rationalize the lewd & lascivious behavior Implying he lacked control, he misinterpreted, that she was the inevitable traitor The author, Eve, penetrates the veil of sexual and psychological trauma only intimated That most people incorrectly conclude takes one that looks visibly evil to have orchestrated The devastating revelation comes when she gives voice to the cacophony of deleterious effects Culminating from emotional desertion, and unrestrained perversion that went unchecked Her mother and siblings bared witness to her gradual physica...

This book commences with an introduction to the tragic confrontation between Officer Brian Encinia and Sandra Bland   The traffic stop that resulted in involuntary resignation for Brian and suicide for Sandra 3-days later while in remand   Brian’s actions were challenged in court and excuses and conjecture undoubtedly ensued   Trying to cover up inept behavior and inappropriate practices that lead citizens and the media to imbue   A sense of horror; to feel incredulous and appalled at the injustice that has transpired   How similar experiences could be reenacted across many states in such a highly esteemed empire   Gladwell inspires confidence through personal recollections, historical anecdotes, and scientific based evidence galore   To bring clarity to a disturbing but increasing phenomenon that even the most ardent Pollyanna abhors   He helps us to see that simple outrage does not suffice   Our response to such abuse of ...
